The reason this is called “Part 1″ instead of “Day 1″ is that many impressions of Huangshan are built collectively over your stay here. Rather than give a narrative description of what I did in a timeline, I think that connecting ideas from the entire stay will work better. I hope you agree.
It’s really strange, […]

It’s a little awkward writing this post, after having written a little about it in a comment and then in another post, but I’ll write this as if I hadn’t written about it before. Sorry for the redundancy, if you’re reading everything…
So, upon waking on Saturday the 10th, I checked with the hotel reception desk […]

I’ve been a little out of range the past few days, with lots of stories to tell. Huangshan was awesome! I didn’t go to Anji, because it looked like arranging the transportation was going to be a big hassle and I didn’t know how long it might take me to get back out of there, […]

NOTE: Sorry for the slow load, but I’m including quite a few pictures today. The rest are here… Also, I finally got the picture of the lobby which I’ve added to the previous post.
Today, I went teapot shopping. As some of you know, I really like Chinese tea and Yixing teapots (teapot is 茶壶, or […]

Well, I finally got it…the experience of a chicken head staring at me from the hotpot (and the feet to boot)…and I didn’t have my camera with me! OK, I’m getting ahead of myself…
I went to bed very early last night, about 7PM, since I was tired after riding a bike around town all day. […]

Well, I’m going to do a couple of posts with just links to pictures, so the page will load a little quicker. You can see the pictures from this post here.
Once again, like in Hangzhou, you get the hang of the place after a couple of days, which makes it easier to get around. One […]

Well, nobody has complained about the load time for the blog, even with all the pictures I’ve added in, so I’ve added a few more in this post. I figure this is because a) everyone has broadband and doesn’t notice, b) nobody is reading the blog, so they don’t notice or c) those that […]

I knew it would happen eventually, but when I got off the bus in Suzhou and got into a taxi, on the ride to Motel 168 (yes, they left the light on for me…) I felt like one of the droogies in A Clockwork Orange, enjoying the […]

Link to pix from this post…
I’ve written all the Hangzhou posts on this, my last night in Hangzhou. I’m writing them in Textpad in my room and will go downstairs to where there is wireless Internet connection to paste them into Wordpress (the blog software) and hook up pictures, etc. to them.
My third day in […]

Link to pix in this post… NOTE: I have videos, which are much better, but I can’t upload them from here. Also, this is the same link as from the last post, since it was on the same day…
OK, well, after that day, I was a little frazzled, but I had heard for a day […]
